I have 2ms ping to YouTube and my network is wired 1gbit so it was odd to get so many buffering issues. So i did a search and this solution immediately solved the buffering issue! Prefer IPv4 or disable IPv6 and it’s buttery smooth

    The default ipv6 issue was mostly when I try to play 8k HDR 60fps on youtube. 4k is BARELY fine (maybe very close when 4k HDR 60)

      Yes, I understand that you’re having issues with IPv6. You’re not on Verizon by any chance, are you?

          Not sure why you got down voted on this comment, but it would’ve been hilarious had you sidestepped his question again

          Hm, I only ask because I observed Verizon playing games with degrading Youtube service apparently on purpose in the past.

          shrug

          Glad you got it sorted out, in any case.
